Living in New England generator is necessary to get through the many power outages during the winter months. This powers all the key items in the house for a family of 5. Push button start or starting with a remote control is a real difference maker.

This generator got top top reviews equaling 4.6 out of 5 stars. With its huge 6.6 gallon gas tank, it's rated to run 11 hours at 50% wattage usage. I'm not anywhere near 50%, so I expect to get about 20 hours or more out of it when the time comes to run it that long. Also, you cannot go wrong with Westinghouse.

I picked up one of these as an "insurance policy" when I moved into my new house. So far, I haven't had a "need" to use it, but I have run it for some shorter periods of time (an hour or so) to test it out and make sure both it and my transfer switch were working properly. I'm very pleased with the power output (I can run most of my house on it......but it's a small house) and the engine noise is much less than I expected.

Purchased on NYE for a great discount thanks to Woot.com. I have performed all the initial start up tasks (charge battery, oil, gas, assembly) and plan to start it this weekend to run a few things to gather info on performance. I intend to use this to power my home's separate circuit of critical items when the main power goes out. We'll see how it performs. I intend to write a follow up review in a few months.

Just bought this generator. It's my first generator and I wasn't sure how to operate one or what I needed to do to et ready for a storm. I live in the Florida panhandle and we've had two storms in two years. I researched portable generators and this one came highly reviewed by experts and received high customer reviews. I got this set up in no time and tested it out. Easy to start. Runs well. Haven't tried it out in a storm, but I'm sure it will operate well and provide the power I'll need.

Easy to assemble and store. Works like a charm at first start. I am so glad I bought this! I will add additional comments after prolonged use. But, for now I think it was a good decision to be prepared for a power outage. Cost was right around what I expected. But, the piece of mind is priceless. This will definitely help my family not go through another event unprepared.

In anticipation of hurricane season here on the coast, I had time to thoroughly search for what I needed. The Wgen7500 stood out over and over on the attributes I was looking for. Then the many positive reviews made the sale. That was even before the included 3-year warranty. I went further and searched warranty stations for that just in case moment and there is a positively known one 4 miles away. Just in case:) Every aspect affirms my choice after a very deliberate search. Thank you Westinghouse.

use for back up power for my house during power outages(Hurricane Season and Ice Storms) Fired up on first try, even came with a funnel for oil, easy to get to dipstick and easy access to battery and air filter. It even comes with a battery charger and has fuel gauge ! Hats off to Westinghouse.

This generator is amazing! It is super easy to set up and also very easy to move with the nice wheels and handles that it comes with! It started right up and ran with no issues at all! I really love that it has a push start button also it has a push start fob and also you can pull start it! I love the versatility of this awesome generator!

I just bought this, in preparation for the coming hurricane season. It took only a reasonable amount of time to unbox it, attach the wheels, attach the stand, and ready the generator to fill oil and gasoline when an approaching storm is forecast. I was pleasantly surprised that a senior, like myself, could manage this by myself on generator weighing nearly 200 pounds, with only hand tools specified on the outer box, plus a small, four wheel, Dolly, on which to raise the generator, while attaching the parts.
